Carboys I am out of honey malt and the crystal 15 smells funny, so recipe has changed. I will not be brewing this style of beer until later on in the summer. Lagers in March, April and May. June is pool work, so outside stuff takes over. Should have enough beer anyway. If not, sneak one in, an ale though. I don't have enough US-05 for another batch. I may meaure it again without the vacuum packaging. No gravity reading or tasteing of wort today. Cleaning everything. No mistakes today either. I write just about everything down. INGREDIENTS 22 lbs. UCM 2 row 2 lbs. Munich ( out of honey malt ) 2 ozs. choc malt ( 400 L ) 1 lb. corn sugar 28.35 g Chinook at 60 min. 14 g Chinook at 30 min. 14 g Chinook at 20 min. 14 g Chinook at 10 min. 113 g Chinook at 0 min. 50 g US-05 Water Profile - Same and not changing it.
